Not currently. Metabase has a tight binding to the source database and its fields. The paid versions have a ‘re-source a question to a new database with an identical schema’ feature, and there are third-party tools, but its not possible to make it dynamic. If you find you need to clone questions a lot, you might look into the Remote Sync feature in the paid versions, where you can copy a template, commit it, and push it to Metabase.
